David Mitchell - too much of a good thing? Page 3

I could certainly do without Frankie Boyles beard.

God yes, what is that about?

Trying to look like a fisherman and/or paedophile, it seems.

I achieved a 135 in my IQ test. Ahem.

Not sure how accurate an indicator of intelligence IQ tests are.

Thanks!

I was wearing oven gloves over my hands and a gimp mask at the time...so everything was against me.

I can well believe it Scottidog, I think you need a certain degree of intelligence to come up with good comedy.

Except in the case of the Wrong Door obviously -

'I know, instead of a man getting into a car, why don't we have a computer generated car leaving the house and then getting into a man to drive to work? Wouldn't that be hilarious?'

'No.'

Very true.

The brightest minds produce the best comedy.

Having said that- If I saw Stephen Fry and David Mitchell ice skating and they both fell over in unison holding hands, I would laugh very very hard.

But then again I saw a programme on a little girl, about age 6 got 150...so..

I think they adjust the test for age.

IQ tests are great for measuring 'fluid intelligence', but don't claim to do anything else. It's possible to get a great score and yet still be unable to put together a coherent sentence.

Half these posts are invisible on my screen? I can't read them. Have we got a faulty ignore button or something?
